Building up 4.5TB of storage

Oh the joys of installing a new hard drive. When I bought my machine 4 years ago it came with a reasonable 160GB drive. But that was then and now most iPods and Netbook’s come with more hard drive space. To try and get over my inadequacies and regain some of my geek cred, I got my hands on a massive 1.5TB Barracuda drive from Seagate.
